Hi! How did you realize you were aplspec? I'm questioning myself and am having such a hard time figuring it out lol...

(disclaimer that all of this is my personal experience and i dont speak for all aplspec people) oh also im gonna be saying i/me but this realization was a mix of mouses and mine (toby)

prepare for a long one cause i like to talk a lot i guess

i think it kinda hit me when i really thought about platonic attraction. im aroace and so dont experience romantic or sexual attraction and so thinking of a platonic version of that was a bit confusing. there were only a couple people i could remember feeling a pull towards to either be their friend or be closer as friends. with other friends it just kind of happened? they were someone i talked to about similar interests or in groups with mutual friends and a friendship just happened because of that. i didnt have a goal or pull to specifcally to try and get closer to them, it just happened because of where we hung around.

i know not all alloplatonic friendships are built on an urge to be friends or closer friends, but i do think my experience of it is in an aplatonic(spec) way. there is also the part where i dont specifcally have an urge to need close friends. i of course enjoy it when i do. but when i realized i was aplspec i only had like 2 past friends that i still occasionally texted but we were super distant. i didnt really miss an emotional bond with someone, i just wanted to talk to people. i was lonely in the sense that all my thoughts were having to be kept inside by head with no way out. and when i seeked out a place to talk about them, thats where friendships formed. i didnt join that community in order to get close friends, i just wanted discussion.

most of the time when it comes to friends, i am seeking the activity, the action, the nonloneliness. it is nice to have people fufilling that with me that i like! but with friends i have a really hard time gauging steps in relationships. i have been known to either talk to someone for a very short time and all of a sudden regard us as very close and i have been known to talk to someone and be friends with them for years, and then not consider them as close as they consider me. the latter isnt usually about me not liking them as much as others, i just dont realize how they view our friendship and have trouble gauging that kind of stuff for myself. i think that comes from just having trouble gauging how people see me in general. personally i think thats an autism thing but it affects my aplatonicism so its also an aplatonic thing!

i also think that i view friendship as like a complete separate step than just talking to someone a lot. that may seem like a contradictory thing to what ive said before. but the fact that i seek talking to people and interacting with others, thats why i was ok with not really having friends for a stretch of time. struggling with gauging friendship makes me see friendship as something that has to be kind of barrier you eventually cross instead of it just building up. i often dont realize when we cross that barrier and of course the other person doesnt feel the need to express it because we are already friends in their eyes. i am often hit with the "oh i guess we are friends now" thought. even with the few people i have felt platonic attraction to.

so TLDR: i realized platonic attraction is actually a thing, and most of the time i dont have an actual pull to be friends/closer with people. i dont usually seek the companionship of friends, usually just the sociable & activity doing aspect. i care about my friends but i dont view my care for them as a platonic attraction. i also have trouble gauging relationship levels with people and often dont realize we are friends until they say something or i realize im spending a lot of my time with them. (reminder that im aplspec, not 100% aplatonic too!)

#i had a lot of trouble putting stuff into words loll #attraction of any kind confuses the hell out of me #lemme know if some things didnt make sense #i will try to elaborate pff #picnic chats #aplatonic #aplspec #aspec

Hhmmmm I have been inspired. Have a Constantine and Billy drabble.

“Hey, John, you there? John? Hello? Is the mirror on? Jooohhn! I can see you, ya know. C’mon turn around! C’moncmoncmon pleeeaaas--”

“Oh, for fuck’s sake!” Constantine threw the scrolls down on the desk and whipped around, snagging the cig from edge and glaring at the two-way mirror that sat innocently upon the bookshelf, right where he left it. Right where he could see and hear for whenever one trouble-prone Billy Batson could reach him. The little shit was lucky John deemed pants a worthy effort that day. “What?”

Billy grinned at him, all bright eyed and apple cheeked and very obviously up to no good. It was hardly a wonder why John liked the brat so much. “Do you know how I can get to the veil without actually going through it? I mean, how Marvel could?”

Sometimes, he also really hated how much he liked him. 

Through the steady stream of smoke as inhaled and exhaled, John squinted suspiciously at the kid as he tossed the words about in his head for a moment. “Why the fuck do you wanna go there? Not trying to bring someone back from the dead, are you? Cause necromancy is nasty shit, especially for the Big Cheese.”

“No! I am not doing necromancy. I just need to get to the... the midpoint. Not quite here, but not there yet.” And he said all that in a way John was sure Billy thought he was being rightly clever. That he could dance around saying outright what he wanted, using half truths and side steps, as if John Constantine wasn’t the fucking master of that particular game.

“You mean you wanna get to the Crossroads.” It wasn’t a question.

“Yes.”

Well, John had to give him that - he knew when to not bullshit the bullshitter.

“No.”

“John--!”

“Do you even know what the Crossroads are? Literally and figuratively and spiritually - do you?” 

“I mean--”

“No, no. Lemme finish.” He took a long drag just to give the kid time to pout and rethink whatever nonsense he wanted to get into. “The Crossroads aren’t for the likes of you nor me, got it. Because you know who resides?”

“Well, kinda--”

“The fuckin’ Fates, that’s who! And unless you’re going to them to tell personally and explicitly to fuck off, you’re not setting foot passed this plane of reality. Understood?”

Billy sighed loud and dramatic. A 50/50 on if John’s words got through. “I’m not trying to contact the Fates, John.”

Oh. Well, that was good. 

Still, woulda been a joy to hear about bright and shiny Champion of Magic telling Fates to shove it.

“Then, why the fuck- This isn’t another stupid fuckin’ game Klarion is trying to rope you into, is it? Or a sorry sob story some poor dead sop gave to you about not wanting to move on? Cause there is no goddamn reason you should be having any sort of business there.” And the more Billy delayed telling him the actual truth, the antsier John got. But he knew, deep in his rotted, wicked heart, he knew how to follow these steps. Knew the script Billy wrote by because that was how he lived this long - testing the waters before going head first. John appreciated every wary bone in that kid’s body. Something had to balance out the overwhelming sense of compassion.

This time when Billy sighed, it was more resigned. More coming to terms with the inevitable fact that he was the one that contacted John because he needed to know something, and no matter what, John would tell it to him straight. Wouldn’t tell him no on the sole basis of whatever bullshit the League of Goody Fucks would feed him. Constantine may still very well say no, but he at least gave a good damn reason, thanks.

Blue gaze right on John, “I have business there cause I need to contact the Goddess Hekate to invite her to dinner.”

Oh, for fucks sake.

“Oh, for fucks sake, kid.”

#billy batson #john constantine #Me? combining my current hyperfixation with my undying love for these two magical miscreants? #its more likely than you think #anyway giving my Goddess Hek some acknowledgement and love here #because uh. Goddess of Witchcraft and magic. Champion of Magic. it makes sense #It doesnt make sense to John. At all. But he generally tries to avoid any and all gods #also that one in particular is fucking terrifying. please yall. her domains are vast. #but yeah Billy wants to idk. have a nice chat and dinner with her. Maybe a graveyard picnic. #Shes heard aaaalll about him from her main girl Persephone. so she'll agree. #Ive been wanting to stretch my banter muscles. esp with Billy since ive gone on an unexpected hiatus #maybe this will help. or some more drabbles #shazam #captain marvel

#was having a moment after church today. we had a picnic on the beach and i was talking to a friend and some emotion came up. #and this guy who i had never met came up and insisted on praying for me. put his hand over my hand and at one point touched my head. #that was probably kindly meant it was also kinda violating??? #i did not enjoy it #like... consent exists for this too #i was trying to have a conversation wtih my friend! #i think the reason he originally came up was that he also wanted to talk to my friend? and then he observed that i was having a moment and #for some reason decided this was the appropriate response #i just wanted to talk to my friend. #and like yeah we were in a public space but... that does not constitute an invitation to join the situation? #i would have been mildly annoyed but not more than that if he had showed up oblivious and started chatting. but this was bad.

I can't believe Bakugo canonically hates rain now that's so sad

No because… he looks outside and is happy it’s sunny. He thinks things like “the weather is so nice” and “it’s a beautiful day.” He likes the way sunshine feels on his shoulders, and being in patches of light that warm his whole body up.

And when it rains he gets all grumpy and antsy and just wants to hole up inside. He wishes that the sun were out. I’m gonna kill myself.

#bakugo #I said this exact thing on my side blog so just ignore this if you saw that LOL #but… he’s the real sunshine boy #god… makes me insane to think about. truly insane #and if he lives he’ll hate the rain even more #I just want to hug him and make cookies with him when it’s stormy out #and when it’s sunny go for a hike and have a picnic #and I always think deep in my heart that Bakugo has at least a few freckles #from being out in the sun #on his nose and shoulders and arms and back of his neck #from his tank top #BECAUSE HE LIKES THE SUN I HOPE I DIE!!!!!!! #ask #anon #caitie chats #bnha spoilers

wheres my mad pride for phobias what whaaaaat /silly

but really though, people need to be more serious about phobias sometimes :/ it sometimes gets stripped down to "just a fear" and it is way way more than that. when its just seen as a fear it can really make it seem like its something we need to just get over or its not a big deal when the fear is so so intense. and thats not to say people shouldnt be allowed to be light hearted about phobias! i joke about ours a lot and even do some things i know will trigger them because i still want to do the thing. but please see phobias as more than "just a fear"

okok so. imagine you have bad anxiety unless you already do then just imagine that it's getting bad.

and what do we do when we get scared of people???? we isolate!!!!! so you go off to a corner!!! to hide!!!! somewhere remote and isolated!!!!! and hopefully no one will find you!!!!! right???

i'm hc'ing that foul legacy has a heightened sense of smell.... because moth and also it works for this fic

so he thought of you and wanted to come find you but you weren't there!!! he goes to all the places you normally go but you aren't anywhere!!!! he goes back to ur house/apartment/whatever and then--

sniff there's something in the air. it's awfully familiar........

curious, he follows the trail and-- hey wait a minute, isn't that you? what are you doing out here??? isn't it dangerous???? foul legacy voices his thoughts to you, concerned.

you look up, shocked. someone????? found you??????????? and then you realise it's foul legacy and you relax juuuuust a little bit but!!!! someone found you!!!!!!!! danger.... right???? but technically, you tell yourself, he's not a person!!!! he's not a human!!!!! so maybe it'll be okay???? it's not like he interacts with people much anyways...

"i'm hiding," you admit quietly. "from people."

"and yeah, it's dangerous out here. but that's the point. if it's dangerous, no one's going to come looking for me out here."

he coos softly at you, unsure of what to say. he gets down on ur level and looks pleadingly at you, a hand extended. no words are necessary, you know he wants you to go back with him. you know he just wants you to be safe. but something in you tells you no, to go back is to get yourself killed, to go back is to submit to torture. you can't go back.

you shake your head sadly. "i'm... tired. i can't go back, you understand? to go back is to return to a place where i don't belong. to return is to come back to a place where i am vulnerable. i can't go back."

he understands. he knows this feeling well. he knows he can't make you, and it might be worse if he made you return right now. so he sits with you, keeps you company. even if you're here, atleast he can keep you safe. at least you're not totally alone. he'll keep you company until you're ready to go back.

i'm giving you a warm hug right now comrade <33 also anxiety gang!!!! *high fives you*

imagine Foul Legacy just sitting next to you quietly, not pressuring you to hurry up or anything, just being there for you. he radiates patience- he'll wait as long as it takes for you to feel better, do whatever he can to help. want him to hold you? pat your head? purr? listen to you rant? just sit in silence? he'll do any of them! as long as they help you feel better

and even when you DO feel better, he really thinks you should go home to relax and have a calm rest of your day instead of forcing yourself to interact with people more. if you insist, he'll whine and tug on your sleeve, but eventually concede and wait for you at home. but if you don't want to, he'll rumble in delight and scoop you up, carrying you home and setting you on the couch with a pile of blankets. he'll vanish for a moment, but don't worry!! Foul Legacy quickly returns with water and a plate of snacks before snuggling up beside you

he nudges your hand towards the food, letting out chirps and trills of encouragement whenever you get something down, and when you're done he lifts you onto his lap and hugs you gently, claws running over your hair. Foul Legacy presses his head against the underside of your chin, purring and giving your cheek occasional licks- you're not sure how, but somehow he ends up snuggling on top of you, face pressed into the crook of your neck and claws carefully kneading your stomach. he's a bit heavy, but it's in a good way, weighted blanket type of heavy, and whenever you stroke his hair or fluff he absolutely PREENS

just.... comforting Foul Legacy <33

#genshin impact #childe #tartaglia #foul legacy #foul legacy childe #genshin tartagalia #genshin childe #genshin tartaglia #chit chat #darling mutuals #izzy if you ever need anything i am happy to help <333 #also foul legacy makes you take the next day off. you deserve a vacation!!!! #will take you around the mountains #maybe have a little picnic!!!! very soft :))) #short scenario #other's stuff
